In order to try to court top business leaders to cooperate with the new information sharing initiative, President Obama will meet today in The White House Situation Room with top CEOs in the tech industry to discuss "how the government and private sector can best work together to improve the nation’s cybersecurity."

A guest list for the closed door event was not announced in advance. Details on the meeting and who attended should trickle out by tomorrow.

It really depends on the CEO, some tech CEOs are from engineering backgrounds, while others are not. So, it really depends. But, if he is just looking to get them to start sharing information with the government, it really has to come from the top dog. So, it may not be about the tech issues but more about getting them to open up and share information with government agencies.
